    ...too much shit to list.
    Well you got a 20 flutter in there now. I'd drop to a 12. It will help with the slow speed bumps not being so harsh. But with the 20's for the main comp shims it will stiffen up the ride where you need it.

    For the front I'd run a 20 on compression with a small diameter .008" shim between the 2 largest diameter shims ( that's your flutter)
    and then a a 12 on rebound , 20 is a bit slow for whoops and jumping , I like my front end to pop up haha

    Landon, what are you using for Airshocks on the end of your DD links? Are they a custom shock and what is the stroke? Can't seem to find radflos or kings?

    people who are caged... what are you doing for solid body mounts? my body is wiggling around making the most annoying sound on the planet against the cage, which i'd like to relieve via solid mounts. I know some people run aluminum bar stock and some others hockey pucks, whats a good option?
